Summariesfor SATB1 gene

This gene encodes a matrix protein which binds nuclear matrix and scaffold-associating DNAs through a unique

nuclear architecture. The protein recruits chromatin-remodeling factors in order to regulate chromatin structure

and gene expression. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
